Music video
The music video was directed by Eric Welch. It features Anderson singing the song in a crowded bar with a full band, as well as him trying to seduce a girl to go out with him...which they do, leading to sex in a car, in a smoky hallway, and on a truck bed. Back in the bar, other patrons are also seen dirty dancing, grouping each other and making out. It ends with a quick shot of the bar doorman's face (who is seen briefly in the video's opening welcoming patrons) giving a grimacing look to the camera.
